Good afternoon, This is indirectly related to the recent discussion about which widgets appear when editing an investment transaction, especially if changing the transaction type. However, I have a problem in that I can't figure out how to create a particular transaction. In theory, this should be a dividend reinvestment. My problem is that Merrill Lynch only records whole shares, and if a dividend reinvestment is not for the exact amount, they indicate the partial shares purchased, but they are not actually purchased at that time. When your partial shares exceed a whole share, they then just do a journal entry, which I can then record as an "add shares."
So - most of the time I add an amount to a category "partial share purchase" to account for that difference, and only include the whole shares purchased by the dividend. My problem is that today I have a reinvestment that ONLY has a partial share. "Reinvest dividends" will not allow 0 shares to be purchased, and "Dividends" does not allow for a "fee" which is where I record the difference. I know that I don't really need to record this in a transaction since there is no increase in shares (I do not track the partial shares in KMM) and no real dividend amount to transfer to the brokerage account, but to be fully compulsive, I'd like to record it somehow. Thanks for any suggestions. Jack _______________________________________________ KMyMoney-devel mailing list KMyMoney-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kmymoney-devel
